  • Patent number: 10493296
    Abstract: Products, compositions, systems, and methods for modifying a target structure which mediates or is associated with a biological activity, including treatment of conditions, disorders, or diseases mediated by or associated with a target structure, such as a virus, cell, subcellular structure or extracellular structure. The methods may be performed in situ in a non-invasive manner by placing a nanoparticle having a metallic shell on at least a fraction of a surface in a vicinity of a target structure in a subject and applying an initiation energy to a subject thus producing an effect on or change to the target structure directly or via a modulation agent. The nanoparticle is configured, upon exposure to a first wavelength ?1, to generate a second wavelength ?2 of radiation having a higher energy than the first wavelength ?1.

  • Patent number: 10489614
    Abstract: Examples relate to tamper detecting cases comprising a socket and a mating lid. The socket has a bottom wall, opposing side walls and an upper opening and the mating lid has a top wall, opposing side walls and a lower opening. The socket and the mating lid fit together defining an inner cavity to store a storage unit. The tamper detecting case further comprises a three dimensional grid of conductive traces formed on the opposing side walls of the socket, an inner surface of the bottom wall of the socket and on an inner surface of the top wall of the mating lid, that forms a current path. The tamper detecting case also comprises a sensor that is to sense a flow of electrical current flowing through the current path and to generate a signal to erase the storage unit when the current path is interrupted.
